“Montana Grant” was originally “Maryland Grant”. He was born in the Appalachian Mountains of Western Maryland. His youth was spent in “Maryland, America in Miniature”. This is where he chased deer, turkeys, and brook trout. Grant’s parents took the family west every summer to explore the Big Skies. We often camped for the summers in Yellowstone Park, moving our camp every 2 weeks. There are few waters in the west where Montana Grant has not wet a line.
As a Hunter, Grant is on the Rocky Mountain Game Calls Pro Team. Archery hunting is a seasonal treat. Grant has fished and hunted with many of the best and most notorious sportsmen and women in the country. Lefty Kreh, Rocky Jacobsen, Bob Jacklyn, and Bud Lilly have been his mentors and friends.
“Mr. Grant” was a Scoutmaster in Bozeman for several years and told many campfire stories that kept the young scouts awake at night. He has also been a camp cook and learned from some of the best Montana cooks over the years. His new book shares these memories, recipes, and stories.
Grant has been writing about the outdoors since the 1980’s. This new book is a compilation of gems that relate to life in the Treasure State. His early English teachers would be proud of this publication. “The most important things that we learn are the things we learn after we already learn everything!”
